Shop Small - Support Local

The Pleasanton Downtown Association, in partnership with the City of Pleasanton has launched a brand-new Shop Small - Support Local campaign to encourage our community to shop, dine and visit local this holiday season. We are asking our community to make the pledge to Shop Small and Support Local!
When you Shop Small you do something BIG! Shopping locally keeps dollars in our economy. When we support our local businesses, our sales taxes are reinvested right here in Pleasanton.
 Now more than ever, it is vital we support the small businesses who make such valuable and distinct contributions to our community and local economy. Shop Small - Support Local 2020 is a celebration of small businesses ranging from retail stores and restaurants to fitness studios and salons, and everything in between. Downtown merchants will be distributing commemorative custom Pleasanton totes for shoppers to enjoy with their purchase. Visit www.pleasantondowntown.net/ShopSmall for participating locations to receive totes with purchase, special offers and more!
